I can't seem to find the Arithmetic Quiz option when i add new h5p content. It doesn't show up in the list. I'm using the wordpress plugin (latest version). Can anyone help me out with it. I'm a (starting) teacher and really excited to use the Arithmetic Quiz. :)

If you download the example above you upload it to your site using upload instead of create, and your site will learn to create arithmetic quizzes :) The download button is a small button at the bottom left of the example content.

There are no immidiate plans for doing that in the immediate future. I was playing with the idea of creating a new content type with support for MathML. But that would earliest happen sometime next year when I have time.

If someone in the community wants to make a more difficult version, they have a good starting point in the current content type. And it might be a fun side project. They can feel free to ask me for some tips too. :)

I didn't have this option on the moodle plug-in so downloaded this example and tried uploading it as suggested so that it would learn how to create them...however I keep getting this message...Can anyone help me out?

Missing required library H5P.ArithmeticQuiz 1.0Missing required library Odometer 1.0Note that the libraries may exist in the file you uploaded, but you're not allowed to upload new libraries. Contact the site administrator about this.

It seems like you do not have the correct permissions to upload new libraries, as the error message says. You should contact the site administrator so he can elevate your privileges, or make the administrator upload the library. Alternatively if you are the site administrator you should check that the permission system is working properly.

When I try to load the aritmeticquiz library I cause an unsuccessful extension error and the math quizzes were active until a few days ago I suddenly did not show up I removed the tests and the library thinking it was damaged but now I can not recharge it while I tried to load other libraries and they did not make any mistakes

If you are asking if you can add your own questions to the arithmetic quiz it is not possible as of the moment. You try other quiz types such as Fill in the Blanks or Single Choice Set to create your own quizzes. You can also use Quiz (Question Set) which include different types of quiz contents.

Excellent H5P activity ... my question is: can we change the range ; I want to use it in a range of math classes ... from beginners using single digit numbers only to intermediary using more than 2 digits per number. Is that something we can change easily in the source code or that can be set as a configuration option?

I agree the content needs more than what can offer. Would you mind posting your suggestion in the Feature Request forum. We’re now working on something called the H5P supporter program allowing the H5P community to vote for and fund the top voted H5P features. Also there are developers in the community who every now and then works on a feature they find interesting or useful. In order for your feature request to attract as much interest as possible make sure it follows the below guidelines:

It is clear from every perspective how the feature will work. We recommend describing the feature with one or more user stories, for instance “As an author I want it to be possible to pick between different effects for the check answer animation so that the learners will see a variety of effects and also I can adapt the effects to my target audience(I’ll be using pink unicorns which works really well for both my target audience which are 4 year old girls and venture capitalists)”

If the feature can be illustrated with images or videos it always helps

Make it clear what content types this is relevant for, and or if this is a new content type

Ypu have a point that this content lacks flexibility. It is actually one of the first content types that was created and there have not been any updates to it for quite some time. But I think there are other contents that can be used to substitute for this contents. You can try using Single Choice Set or Question Set.
